BURROWS ENGINEERING RACING IN ASSOCIATION WITH RICHARDSON KELLY RACING UNVEIL NEW LIVERY FOR 2019

The Burrows Engineering Racing team has unveiled a striking new livery for 2019 after joining forces with Richardson Kelly Racing. 

Dublin’s Derek Sheils will spearhead the team’s international road racing effort along with new signing Tom Weeden from Kent, who won the 2016 Senior Manx Grand Prix.

The leading Northern Ireland road racing team will focus on the major international meetings, including the North West 200, Isle of Man TT, Ulster Grand Prix and Macau Grand Prix, in addition to a selection of Irish National events this year.

Both Derek and Tom will return to the fonaCAB North West 200 in association with Nicholl Oils in May after missing the event in 2018.

Team Principal – John Burrows:

“We have a brand new look after joining forces with Richardson Kelly Racing and we are delighted to unveil our new livery for 2019. Everyone at Burrows Engineering Racing is looking forward to the start of the new season and we are hopeful of another successful year, with Derek Sheils coming back into the team on a full-time basis while Tom Weeden is a promising new addition to the team. 

“Both Derek and Tom will return to the North West with 200 this year and it will be an important event for us and our riders after they both missed last year’s meeting. I want to help Tom get his spark back after his injury. He was the fastest newcomer at last year’s Ulster Grand Prix and he hasn’t forgotten how to ride a motorbike. Derek had that great 5th in 2017 and I want to see him back up there at the front, mixing it with Glenn Irwin, Alastair Seeley and the rest of the frontrunners.”
